Chapter 123: I specialize in raising Supreme Sword Qi

The cloud-treading lynx sniffed and walked over to the green-colored giant egg, curiously sniffed the inside of the eggshell, and turned to leave.

Lu Xuan gently stroked the light green colored pattern on top of the eggshell and then made a contract with it.

After the contract was established, he felt a few close connections with the little Wind Falcon in the eggshell that he had yet to meet.

Slowly injecting a trace of spiritual energy into the cyan-colored eggshell, the little Wind Falcon inside the eggshell greedily absorbed it.

A thought surfaced in Lu Xuan’s mind.

[Wind Falcon, Second Grade Demon Bird, known for its speed, naturally controlling a low-grade wind technique].

[Mainly feeds on the meat of demonic beasts, those that contain wind system spirit power are more effective.]

[I want to fly higher, fly higher, dancing in the gale.]

“To still be able to control wind-type low-ranked spells at the growth stage, that would be an unexpected blessing.”

Lu Xuan thought secretly in his heart.

He had bought it with the intention of cultivating a commuter transportation vehicle, so his first consideration was speed, and not only did the Wind Falcon perfectly meet his requirements, it could also control low-rank wind magic spells on its own, which instantly made Lu Xuan feel that it was worth every penny.

His mind condensed on the green colored egg, and through his detailed knowledge of its state, he knew that there was still some time before the Wind Falcon inside hatched out.

Injecting a few subtle spiritual energy once again to fulfill the growth needs of the Wind Falcon hatchling inside, Lu Xuan placed the giant egg in the corner of the house and went to the Spirit Field.

He took out the Sword Nurturing Gourd Spirit Seed that was like a small sword, found a blank area, and with the Earth Drawing Technique controlling the Spirit Soil to spread out a small crack, placed the Sword Nurturing Gourd Spirit Seed into the crack.

Under the condensation of his mind, in an instant a thought flashed through his mind.

[Sword Nurturing Gourd, Third Grade Spiritual Plant, can harbor invisible sword qi within the body, extremely strong in killing.]

[During the cultivation process, one needs to place a flying sword artifact near the Sword Nurturing Gourd, and as the gourd grows, it will automatically draw on the sword intent inside the flying swords, thus harboring more and stronger sword qi within the body.]]

[I specialize in cultivating supreme sword qi!]

“Fine, fine, I know you can harbor sword qi.”

Lu Xuan casually chimed in and rummaged through his storage bag for a while to find a worn out first-rate flying sword.

This First Grade Flying Sword should have been obtained when he was invited by the Wang Clan to enter the Secret Realm, and due to its dilapidated state, it had been staying in the storage bag to eat dust, just so that it could be used as fertilizer for the Sword Nurturing Gourd.

He threw the worn out flying sword around the gourd spirit seed and returned to the house.

This time, after buying the second-grade Wind Falcon and the third-grade Sword Nurturing Gourd, the sword seals on his hands violently decreased greatly, removing most of them at once, leaving only thirty-two sword seals.

“After toiling for hundreds of days, one day I returned to the entrance door.”

Lu Xuan sighed with a sigh of relief.

Those Sword Seals that took so long to earn were spent like running water.

More than a hundred sword seals went down, and just two rings were heard.

“Still have to work hard to earn sword seals and try to get a fourth-grade spirit seed.”

Lu Xuan set a small goal and was instantly motivated.

For the task of raising the Jiao Dragon Demon Beast, he planned to stick with it for a while longer.

Although there were only ten sword seals per month, as long as the Jiao Dragons, Pythons, and Fey Boas broke through and were promoted, he would be rewarded with ten or fifty sword seals, so why not.

Moreover, he had already laid a good foundation, and following the specific demonic beast meat recipes to feed on, it was estimated that quite a few of the remaining Jiao Dragons and Pythons would be able to obtain breakthroughs very quickly.

Among them, a few heterogeneous auger chi dragons similar to the two-headed auger dragon might be able to break through to the third grade stage.

With such a good opportunity to earn a Sword Seal, Lu Xuan didn’t want to cheapen it for someone else.

“Also have to find an opportunity to sell the mature spirit plants in my hands.”

Currently, he had accumulated quite a few mature spirit plants in his hands, and there were more than a hundred Spirit Glow Grasses of no grade, so if he kept putting them away, the chance of life would slowly drain away, affecting their quality.

In addition, there was also a first-grade Pure Snow Lotus, a second-grade Dark Pith Ganoderma, a number of second-grade Clear Mysterious Spirit Tea tea leaves, and a few odds and ends. All of these needed to be sold out as soon as possible in exchange for spirit stones or rare spirit species.

Lu Xuan thought in his heart.

Suddenly, a calm voice came from outside the courtyard.

“Senior Brother, I’m a fellow disciple who lives on the other side of this mountain peak, I’ve come to pay a visit, I wonder if it’s convenient?”

“A fellow disciple on the other side?”

Lu Xuan was puzzled in his heart and quickly recalled that there was another cave on the other side of the mountainside, only that when he had just moved over, the cultivator inside the cave had been away from his home, and thus didn’t have much of an impression.

This mountain peak was not too big, not too small, and with the cultivator’s traveling speed, it would not take half a moment to reach that cave house.

It dawned on him in his mind and he said without thinking.

“Senior brother coming over, the humble abode is fluffy, is there any inconvenience? Senior brother wait a moment, senior brother will come out here.”

Lu Xuan quickly swept the items on the table into his storage bag and came outside the courtyard.

Opening the courtyard door, a young cultivator with a resolute look stood not far from the doorway.

Seeing Lu Xuan come out, a hint of a smile appeared on the young cultivator’s face as he clasped his fists in greeting.

“My name is Xu Shaoze, I live not far from Senior Brother’s cave, so I came over to bother Senior Brother and ask for a cup of tea.”

“My name is Lu Xuan, welcome Senior Brother Xu, please come in, Senior Brother.”

Lu Xuan returned the salute and welcomed the stoic young cultivator into the house, made a pot of hot tea and brought up two saucers of spirit fruits.

“Due to the fact that I’ve been capturing evil spirits in the remote realm, I haven’t been in the sect for nearly half a year, and when I came back, I only learned that I have a new neighbor in the form of Senior Brother.”

“Hence, came over to pay a visit.”

The two of them talked for a while, and Xu Shaoze took the initiative to talk about the reason for his long absence within the sect.

“Capturing evil spirits for half a year? Elder brother is far beyond ordinary people in both strength and heart, elder brother admires that.”

“You didn’t encounter any dangers during that time, did you?”

Lu Xuan sniffed and sighed from the bottom of his heart, Evil Sneaks are much more difficult to deal with than demonic beasts and cultivators, and this person in front of him, actually managed to fight with Evil Sneaks for half a year, hovering on the line of life and death every day, making Lu Xuan, who had been planting his fields peacefully, feel terrified just thinking about it.

“Dangerous situations are encountered some, but it’s all a refining of oneself, it’s nothing.”

The resolute looking Xu Shaoze bowed his head, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes.

“I come from an ordinary background, before entering the sect, I was just a casual cultivator, my natural talent is still okay, but it’s nothing inside a sect where geniuses gather.”

“The only redeeming quality is that I have more experience in fighting, relying on fighting with demons, fighting with people, and fighting with evil spirits over and over again, I have fought to get to this position now.”

Xu Shaoze said with a relaxed demeanor, but Lu Xuan heard the mountain of corpses and sea of blood and white bones in his tone.

Although he didn’t like taking risks, he admired Xu Shaoze’s experience.

“Coincidentally, like you, Senior Brother, I am also a casual cultivator from a small workshop thousands of miles away.”

Lu Xuan said with a smile.

“Then the two of us are quite similar.”

Xu Shaoze sniffed, and a few more points of closeness came into his eyes.

“Hahaha, compared to senior brother, I’m far worse.”

“I don’t have the same ambition as senior brother, I’m not very interested in competing for chances and whatnot, I just want to be a peaceful and ordinary Spirit Plant Master.”

“People have their own aspirations, can’t say who’s right or who’s wrong, it’s just a choice.”

Xu Shaoze said in a deep voice.
